The current between any two points in the circuit is the voltage between
those two points divided by the resistance between the same points.
The electric force that makes current flow in a circuit is related to the resistance.
The electric force that makes current flow in a circuit is related to the resistance.
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
In an electrical circuit, current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance. This relationship is described by Ohm's Law, which states that current (I) equals voltage (V) divided by resistance (R), or I V/R.
When you add resistance to a circuit, current goes down. Ohm's Law: current = voltage divided by resistance.
If you add another resistor or just increase the resistance the current will decrease. I think the statement you are talking about means that whatever the current is in the series circuit it will be the same everywhere in that circuit, on both sides of the resistance. The resistance lowers the current in the entire circuit, not just after the resistance.
When you increase the resistance in a circuit, the current (amps) in the circuit will decrease. This is because Ohm's Law states that current is inversely proportional to resistance, so as resistance increases, current decreases.
Ohm's law: voltage is current times resistance. Restating this; current is voltage divided by resistance, so increasing resistance would decrease current.
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
Voltage = (current) x (resistance) Current = (voltage)/(resistance) Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
No. Current and voltage are directly proportional to one-another and both are related to resistance by Ohm's law: V = IR or Volts = Current * Resistance So the current will depend upon the voltage and the circuit resistance by rearranging the above equations: I = V/R Meaning that the current will decrease as circuit resistance is increased if the voltage remains constant.
As long as the voltage between the ends of the circuit remains constant, the current through the circuit is inversely proportional to the total effective resistance of the circuit.
